You sure you have to restart?  Does the process eat up all the ram and segfault due to resource starvation? Or stop working at all?

It may or may not be a leak based on your description, I do know mod_vlc does use some memory up, but it may just be memory pool swelling.

Also what version of FreeSWITCH are you running exactly?

Hi, users

We are using 6 freeswitch instances, 5 freeswitch instances for playing streams with mod_vlc. After 3 to 4 for days,  we see these (5) freeswitch taking more than 3gb of momory and even though calls are not more than 25.

Usually, some calls stay for more than 2 to 3 hours on some freeswitch.  Everytime we have to restart the freeswitch to release the captured memory.

But is believed, freeswitch must release the momory when there are no calls. But freeswitch still keeps captured memory.

I have attactted the top command result along with this email.
Willing to perform any test if it helps tackle the problem.

Thanks for your help.
